Lets get cracking!!!!!!

But while the US and Canada have plenty of them in their backyards, it is currently cheaper to import them from overseas, like China. Since around the 1980s, China has invested massively in huge mines, sophisticated processing plants, and efficient supply streams.

This has been so successful that they now supply something like 70% of the global supply. But if the US and Canada can make mining and processing domestic rare earth deposits economically competitive, this could be challenged.

University of Michigan researchers have found that the US and Canada may have enough rare...

Who is Winning the Great Data Center Race?
The global race to build data centers has become a competition for AI leadership, with countries pursuing different but complementary strategies. The United States remains the dominant force, leveraging its AI firms, cloud providers and capital markets to build infrastructure at unprecedented scale, while China is mobilizing state resources to expand domestic compute capacity and reduce dependence on foreign technology. We lose this game it is GAME OVER!

History Lesson: Why “Compellence by Punishment” Usually Fails

It is the doom of man that he shall forget!!!!!

One of the enduring lessons of military history is that bombing, sanctions, and other forms of punishment rarely force a determined nation to surrender vital interests unless there is also a credible threat of invasion or regime collapse.

Societies often become more resilient under attack, not less. When a nation believes its sovereignty, territory, or survival is at stake, it can endure extraordinary hardship rather than capitulate. Civilian suffering, infrastructure destruction, and economic pain frequently strengthen national resolve instead of breaking it.

The broader lesson is clear: Compellence by punishment alone rarely succeeds. Nations are often willing to absorb tremendous costs when core interests are at stake. Without a credible threat of occupation, invasion, or some other decisive means of changing the strategic equation, punishment campaigns tend to harden resistance rather than produce surrender.

History repeatedly suggests that inflicting pain is much easier than compelling political submission.
